Just found out today...

I just came back from my ultrasound and the tech was vague and wouldn't even let me see the screen. SAid "we'll give your doctor the info in 3 business days" but I saw the screen as I was leaving and the sac is small and empty. I've been spotting for 3 weeks and today it turned bright red so I pretty much know this is it.

I know with my two healthy babies I got ultrasounds done at this time (7-8 weeks) and it was easy to tell that everything was fine.

I"m completely devastated. I feel broken almost. I know these things happen. This is my first loss that I've known about (had two that I lost before I even had time to adjust and the hormones were so low that the doctor didn't even consider them pregnancies cuz my hcg was <7)

I"m glad my son is at school and my daughter is at my mom's cuz I just can't stop crying.

Thanks in advance for the support.

A loss is a loss I'm so sorry you have go go through it! I am on the May board and saw your post there. Take the time to heal and if you try again it will make you nervous and scared the whole 9 months but very appreciative at the same time. I lost my first pregnancy at 9.5 weeks MMC in May and now I'm expecting in May with my rainbow and first baby. Hug your little ones and take the time to grieve. There is no time limit on this or a schedule of what to feel. Hang In there momma and I pray you get your rainbow if that's what you want :)

Mandy ~ My heart breaks for you, I can't imagine how you must be feeling right now. I'm sorry the tech wouldn't give you more detail, but I do hope that you get some reassurance from your doctor when you speak to him. It sounds like this is quite a shock for you, and I know that it can be helpful to speak with someone in the face of such pain.

I know that Focus on the Family has have professional therapists that you can speak with over the phone (for free). You might consider calling if you need someone to talk to. Here's the link. I hope this helps. ((Hugs))

Thank you everyone. I'm starting to feel a little better. I read this poem today and although it still made me cry it gave me a little hope as well. I'm not planning on actually trying again until my daughter turns 3. This baby was a big surprise but still loved and wanted just the same.

and right back at all of you. I"m very sorry for your losses as well.
